[Q] Cant get out of Bootloader anymore. Bootloader relocked - Security warning

Hello,
I have now completely made my PrimoU useless.
For weeks I try to get the CM10 from Lloir working but it never got over the booting screen. So I tried several things, but never came further. Flashing back to my first rom always worked. I tried to unlock bootloader again (thought, maybe it isn't) but it was unlocked. Therefore I tried to lock it to maybe start from scratch.
That was a big mistake, because since then, I am stuck on bootloader. On the top in pink is written "Relocked" "Security warning". No recovery, no starting to the software. I gave it up.
Can anyone help me? I only have a Mac. Is there ANY possibility to just set the whole phone back to Factory form? So no bootloader unlocking, no custom rom, no recovery? I am really thinking about changing it back to this and maybe sell it afterwards. I used HTC Desire for two years with several custom roms and everything. Always could work with it. This device is unfortunately not the same.
But at first I hope anyone can help me to get this back booting with Mac?
Thanks to you all in advance

Moved to Q&A. Please ask all questions there.

Try this ./fastboot-mac flash unlock Unlock_code.bin
You have unlocked it again
You should have it in your email...
Then download the latest boot.img and zip file from cm10 and transfer the Rom zip to your sdcard....
Check development section for cwm recovery 6...download and rename it to recovery.img
Flash it by
./fastboot-mac flash recovery recovery.img
Flash boot.img by renaming it and
./fastboot flash boot boot.img
Go to recovery and flash the cm10 zip file....

Thank you all, I used this way:
I installed Virtualbox to use a xp system to unlock bootloader again.
After that I still wasn''t able to install CM10. Whatever I do, it always sticks at the bootscreen.
I then tried the new Modaco Vanilla Rom, and it worked without ANY problems. Now I use this for start... It seems as Jelly Bean is not possible for me...

Your problem with CM10
The problem was probably you didn't flash the kernel because if you did then you would have to flash a stock kernel to return to your original rom. Just some advice for future reference

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)

[Request]Guide for S-off phone

Hi guys,
I have searched a bit but havent really found a solid guide.
I just brought my gf a HOX, and I checked it was shipped with Ship S-off, CID11111111111, Hboot 1.12
Now when I looked for guides to install CMW, all the method includes unlocking at HTCdev and fastboot.
Now I understand I can skip the fastboot method with S-off, how do I flash CMW and custom roms? Do I just put in the CMW.zip fie into the sd card partition, go to stock recovery and flash it as update.zip?
My previous phones were the Defy (2ndinit method) and the droid razr (bootstrap), how do I get CMW with an S-off HOX?
Thanks all, dont flame me for not searching, I didnt find any obvious method :silly:

You should be able to flash it directly with fastboot using "fastboot flash recovery NameOfFile" command or you use one of the flash tools.
Edit: After installation of cwm you are able to install custom rom via recovery
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

You follow every other guide, just ignoring the bit about HTCDev as you don't need it

Not skip fastboot, just skip unlocking through HTCDev. You just can flash custom recovery via Fastboot, without unlocking youre device.
Edit: Sorry guys I didn't read your above comments.

Wow its that simple? Even if it shows "locked" on the top, I can just ignore that right?
Cool thanks

Yep, as you have S-OFF so already have access to the other partitions

of course it is simple! you don't even need to flash the boot.img every time you install a rom

How much would it cost to get this device s-off?

you have to unlock the bootloader to flash the recovery file... use HTCDev.com to do it

So what's the point s-off then???

You have to do it just once and from there on you can flash boot.img files from sdcard, without the computer. And you can up/downgrade your hboot as much as you like. At least I think it works that way.

If you really wanted to, you could still unlock you bootloader by using the command fastboot oem unlock I believe.

Try that, didnt work.
But I got it figured out after reading some Chinese websites.
Basically fastboot wont work because it is still locked, but S-off means you can flash any RUU.
So I downloaded a RUU flashing tool, then just put the custom recovery.img into the RUU.zip (with nothing else inside but the android.txt file) and flashed it.
Now I have CMW and I can flash anything without having to fastboot boot.img

IF your phone is S-OFF you don't have to unlock the bootloader, you can just flash things 'out the box'. Follow guides as if you've already unlocked the bootloader

So if someone wants to install the JB firmware.zip and have a CID of 11111111, should they change their CID to a compatible one or can they just add 11111111 to the androidinfo.txt and then flash it and it'll ignore the broken signature?
What if they need to flash a boot.img seperately (a repack for example), can they do this using fastboot without unlocking it?

[Q] Bricked One X (Black screen with silver htc logo)

I have searching for a solution here for last 2 days but couldn't find one
Problem :
My one x is displaying black screen with silver "htc" logo. It does not boot in bootloader or recovery. Although fastboot commands are still running on this blackscreen.
What I did
I successfully unlocked my one x and installed paranoiandroid but when I started using it my phone began to hang and the touch was disable.
Then I read the post for getting bavk to stock using RUU. I followed these step.
- checked my phone version using "fastboot getvar version-main"
- downloaded "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.17.707.3_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed"
- unlocked the bootloader "fastboot oem lock"
- Ran the RUU exe file.
Now the RUU is giving an error the RUU is not correct but it is the same version which I get from "fastboot getvar version-main" and now my phone is only displaying the black screen with sliver "htc" logo.
I shall be grateful if someone can provide a solution to my problem. Thank you.

try 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' or 'fastboot oem reboot-bootloader' (forgot which one).
Then try find a correct RUU to flash or just flash a custom ROM.

Thank you for the reply.
I have tried it. The command executes but the phone again boots in blackscreen with silver "htc" logo. It is not going in bootloader.

If you re-run the command fastboot getvar version-main, will it give you the same no. 2.17.707.3 ?

Yes it is giving the same version and I have downloaded the exact RUU version still RUU fails to complete its setup stating "not correct RUU, download the correct file"

I was searching for a solution and found that RUU setup also works if the RUU version is an updated version with same region e.g x.xx.707.x.
I have downloaded RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed. Should I try this?

I unlocked the bootloader and ran RUU.exe file from my computer. The setup begins and error occurs while flashing the rom image

I think you should reinstall the HBoot manually...
What CID do you have?
Is your Bootloader "relocked" ??

U need to RELOCKED your bootloader.
Please google how to extract boot_signed.img , recovery_signed.img and rom.zip from RUU. After u've extract those, flash boot_signed and recovery_signed first. Then boot to recovery, flash your rom.zip and only after that u run the RUU. Give it a try.

You should download it before...if you give me your CID pass you the correct link to download the correct "firmware.zip" that contains the HBoot.
After the downloading you should type this command twice:

Thank you. My cidread returns HTC_044. Also I have logged into bootloader screen again. I just ran the Unlock_bin file I received during rooting my device and now my phone isn't displaying the black screen and finally entered bootloader.
The problem I figured out was my bootloader was relocked and my RUU setup failed, so I had a custom rom installed with locked bootloader. That's why the phone was bricked I wan't entering bootloader.
Now I can access my recovery as well.

You don't need to extract anything from the ruu, if you have the right ruu just lock the bootloader and leave the phone there ... Start the ruu from pc with admin rights.....

Im speakung from my experiance. I have face this problem before. RUU program cant install the rom. So i have to flash everything extracted from RUU first. Only after that the RUU can install the rom. But maybe im just got lucky though.

[Q] Error 191 when using RUU - Rom not supported

G'day Guys,
I am trying to root my desire HD. currently 2.3.5
I initially followed the HTCDEV method
For my phone which downloaded the RUU program. PD9810000_Ace_Sense30_S_hboot_2.00.0029.exe
this is for Desire HD Vodaphone australia.
I ran the RUU successfully once. It supposedly upgraded the image from 2.12.178.2 to 3.13.0.0
apon rebooting into the fastboot screen as per the HTCDEV instructions when attempting to fastboot I recieved errors saying
"no image or wrong image" or something to that effect.
at this point I went back to the drawing board and tried the HOW TO ROOT WITHOUT HACK KIT thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168500) method and script for unlocking the bootloader. which downloaded the same RUU program
apon running it this time it still wished to updrade from 2.12.178.2 to 3.13.0.0 and i recieved the error
ERROR [191]: Rom is not supported
I have searched several threads with this error however none of them seemed to have a solution ie.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21231962

Appologies for the first thread question and its length.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

So I renamed the rom.zip file copied it to the root folder of the SD card.

Just when rebooting afterwards. The phone does its .HTC flash screen for like 30 secs then it goes to a black screen (phone on) indefinitely.
The process I am using is
1 zip Rom on sdcard.
2 cwm delete user data
3 cwm install zip image from sdcard which works
4 reboot
5 fastboot USB
6 from pc: fastboot flash boot boot.IMG (extracted from Rom zip)
Am I doing anything incorrectly or missing a step.
Rooted, unlocked bootloader s-on
Thanks all

Is the phone in fastboot? What ROM? What recovery version?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The phone was in fastboot USB
The working Rom is the one listed shoved from the full root sticky..3.12.405.1 rooted by nitr00
The 2 Roms that failed were jellytime and cryogen. Either the current or most recent stable apparently
Recovery is cwm. It's a slightly older version I think though. It was the only one I could find at the time.
Maybe 2. Something. I'll reboot now and check. Could that be an issue?

Bootloader unlocked
Hboot 2.00.0029
Radio 26.14.04.28m
Cwm recovery v 2.5.1.2

Yay just tried with the latest version of CWM and it works... FFS why wouldnt I have used the current version.
anyway I am playing with 4.2.2 jelly time now.
Thanks so much every contributor. your replies helped me keep going.
