I know this question been asked alot but my problem is different so plz reply and help me.I had unlocked the boot loader of htc desire had 2.3.5 and then rooted it through htc super tool v3 but now I can't s-off , I tried downgrading using advance ace hack kit but it also fails with bootloader saying no image or wrong image.I used desire had easy radio off tool but that also gives error "probably lost connection"
Plz plz plz help I have been searching for many days but couldn't find any solution so plz help.
Thanks in advance..
Its because you unlocked it using the HTC Dev tool. What youbneed to do is relock it and try the hack kit again
But cant i s-off without downgrading, because before unlocking bootloader and rooting i had tried advance ace hack kit, it downgraded my mobile successfully, but after that my mobile and aahk got stuck at "downgrading radio" or something like that. And cant i flash custom rom without s-off, because some where i read that a guy named pierre_ja helped some one in flashing custom recovery and custom rom, plz if u can help me in the same i will be very thankful to you..
You asked to soff, and you can't unless you use the hack kitBUT you can flash a custom rom with unlocked bootloader, those are two different thing. I personally advice against using the HTC tool, and recommend the hack kit. You need to figure out why it went wrong. Bit anywho. If you are adament on sticking with the unlocked bootloader this is what you need to do.
1) download a recovery of your choice and name it recovery.
2) download a rom of your choice(place one copy in your SD and leave another somewhere else)
3) boot into hboot and select fastboot
4) move the recovery image to where you have the fastboot and adb files
5) open a command prompt CD to your adb folder
Type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot reboot
6)noe go back into hboot and select recovery to Confirm its Installed. If so reboot to bootloader and select fastboot again
7In the rom zip you downloaded extract the boot image and place in your adb folder
8) type in the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
8)now select recovery and in cwr do a full wipe and install your rom
thanks for the help..really appreciate..going to go with aahk as you said..thanks again

do you still have the Unlock.ini from HTC?
if you have it then you have to type (in the folder that contains the Unlock_code.ini)
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
if you have not the file then you have to follow the step by step guide here (make sure to select: All Other Supported Models)
Hello,
I've a problem. I want to my DHD was unblocked. So, I Did S-off by AAHK 13-01-12 and when my DHD is reboot on hboot mode this doesnt found PD98IMG.zip . OFC. I write to sd card few other zip. but this not help.
I download older version AAHK - 29-10-11 and when DHD reboot I see bootloop. In CMD i found flashing radio.. - This is reason to bootloop.
If I've S-on I can't flash radio by fastboot, yes?
If this true how I Fix it? On the recovery mode? I dont know how...
Please help me Fix It and make s-off
I think you can flash it if you are unlocking your device via htvdev or maybe aahk2 will fix it

With S-ON you can't flash a radio as your nand partition security is still on even with an unlocked bootloader. Try flashing a ruu to get to normal state and then re try what you were trying to do. Besides, do not use the Hack Kit but the new version AAHK2 to be found in the general section of the forum.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
If you want to make it rooted, but s-on, flash clockworkmod recovery into your device by fastboot, then put your downloaded ROM.zip into main directory of sd card, and go to recovery do full wipe, dont forget to go advanced and wipe dalvik and battery status, then install from zip. Reboot after complete again into fastboot open cmd and dive to directory where you extracted boot.img from ROM.zip and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and "fastboot reboot". If you need more help pm
I've software number 3.12.405.2 - btw. this number is very rare..
so I must flash RUU on the hboot?
maybe i must flash into the recovery? - what software i need?
How do I download ruu ?
Lol uncle google doesn't help or I don't know how to find it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okey, I fix it..
I turn on fastboot mode and aah 2 I flash radio for eeu - this fix radio.
Next I lounched normal aahk and all is ok.
I've s-off , custom recovery and custom rom.
Thanks Guys!

Hey pal first off, this is the wrong forum. This is the old wildfire forums not the wildfire s. But I shall help you out none the less
Since your phone is hboot unlocked but not s-off you need to flash your custom roms boot.img via fastboot just after you flash the rom via recovery. When you download the rom it comes in a zip file, unzip a copy of it and place the boot.img in your fastboot folder, then copy the zip to your sd card and then flash via recovery. Once it's flashed boot into hboot by using advanced reboot options I think its called. Then flash the boot.img using the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where boot.img is the name of the .img you took from the zip file (just in case you have renamed it and don't know why the command is not working)
Then do fastboot reboot and the phone should boot up okay. You need to flash the boot.img for every rom change that you do. Also should you decide you want to run a RUU you must relock you hboot or it won't run.

HI.
firste off i would like to thank you for taking the time to responde to my question and im sorry about posting in the wrong forum.
i watched the XDA DEV noob video on youtube about being a noob so before i posted my question i looked through each and every post i could find about my phone s problem but NO LUCK so i decided to ask the experts
*i did relock my bootloader before i ran the Ruu and it didnt work it said main version too old and since my costume rom is based on andoird 2.3.7 and my htc can only go as far as 2.3.5 and ruu wont let you downgrade so i figured it might not work.
*now you suggested that i flash the costume rom via recovery and thats the problem i cant even get in to my recovery it just gets stuck on the white htc screen and i tried flashing the recovery Again (twrp) and nothing. even other recoveries wouldnt work.
*i flashed about 4 roms and they all worked just fine even this last one and i didnt flash the boot.img and i was able to reboot normally
THANK YOU.

Okay so, let's recap.
You are on a custom android rom.
You have a custom recovery installed.
Your cannot flash the RUU as your run version is higher than the RUU.
Lastly you cannot boot into your custom Rom, or your recovery?
Do you want to return to stick it get a custom Rom flashed?

at this point i just want to get pass that white htc screen i am sick of it
Q: if i flash a system via fastboot successfully will it automaticly erase the old one because i tried to erase it but it said remot controle not allowed (S-on)
ok, ive requested this thread be moved to its correct forum.
before proceeding can you tell me when your htc wildfire marvel was made? after 2012?
can you flash clockworkmod recovery and then try flashing a custom htc sense rom
Then reboot back into cwm recovery (by selecting advanced/ reboot-recovery in the menus) and plug the phone into your computer via usb cable. open up your command prompt and move to your adb folder. type the following commands ( a # denotes instructions and should not be typed into the command window)
Code:
adb devices
#this should show your device up, maybe saying its in recovery mode
adb shell
# the command prompt should change to a # symbol
Now make sure you have a sdcard in the phone and then run the following command
Code:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
This should leave you with a file called misc.img on your sdcard. Lastly
Code:
exit
exit
exit
your command window should have closed. now upload this file to a online storage system like dropbox and send me a pm with a link to it. I will edit it and you can flash it back, this will relock your hboot and downgrade your software version so that RUU's will work. then we will run a RUU, returning your phone to stock and functional state

Hmm.... Okay reflash twrp and see if it boots up. Without a recovery your options are limited. You need to be careful as your device uses a different kernel from older versions of the wildfire s. If you flash a older RUU version it will kill your phone.
Do you have any phone unlock shops near you?

Make sure when you go to the unlock shop you make sure they use an XTC clip http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/xtc_clip.htm
If they don't have it then do not pay for an unlock. You need s-off not SIM unlocked. Make sure to ask for it. Once your S-off you can run any RUU and fix the phone but check in here first so I can ensure that its compatible with your 2012 edition of the phone ( as I said flashing one that is too old will kill the phone!)

I've been planning to install a CM7 my old HtC Wildfire A3333 to give it a new life.I have successfully unlocked the bootloader through HTCDEV and gained root by using WinDroid..Also have SuperSU installed already and used ROM
Manager to flash CWM recovery/TWRP..But when I reboot to access Recovery it goes back to stock Android recovery and it says INSTALLATION ABORTED when installing Zip from SD card..I know I cannot use REVOLUTIONARY because my HROOT is 1.02.000 and I find it hard to downgrade to HBOOT 1.01.000..Did I mess up on something???
Thanks XDA..

you need to flash clockworkmod Via fastboot commands buddy. Download clockworkmod as a recovery.img and then flash it using the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, its similar to when you flashed the unlock_token.bin to unlock your hboot so the recovery.img needs to be in the fastboot folder.
Thanks HMM..Still cannot flash I'm sorry for being stupid this is my first time rooting..do i need to s-off first? ..please check my screenshots
ALSO tried your suggestion on PC49img.Zip..Also not working

Follow this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484124 do the s-off commands after you have downloaded the .img place it within your adb/ fastboot folder.

Flashing a custom recovery from a stock recovery wont work. It checks that the stuff its about to flash is from htc and a custom recovery is not made by htc. You must use fastboot. What errors if any is the fastboot command giving you?
Sent from my LG-D802 using Tapatalk
In the fastboot commands is (Waiting for Device)....I've waited for 15 mins but I think the PC is not recognizing the phone..It also says ONE OF THE Usb is not working something like that.....
I've read in one of XDA treads that Its possible to DISABLE Signature VERIFICATION
Will that work??one more thing, what is the easiest and PROVEN way to S-off HTC WILDFIRE with HBoot 1.02.000...much like revolutionary..Many Thanks..
Use windows 7
Windows 8 didn't work with fastboot only adb with my HTC WILDFIRE A3333, Windows 7 works install driver from windows
IF you are only looking forward for CWM recovery you don't need fastboot
